A bipartisan bill has been proposed in US Congress that would require the US Secretary of state to submit annual reports reviewing the educational material used by Palestinian Authority and UNRWA schools in Palestinian areas..
The bill was introduced last Thursday by Reps. Brad Sherman (D-CA) and Lee Zeldin (R-NY) is cosponsored by four other congressional representatives, two from each party.The legislation also includes a sense in Congress that the PA and UNRWA have not eliminated content that encourages violence, antisemitism, hate and intolerance toward other nations or ethnic groups from the curriculums used in their schools.
Last month, the GAO, the US Government Accountability Office, released a report for the US Congress, after a delay of a full year, which confirmed that the PA has provided UNRWA with a curriculum of war indoctrination for 321,000 students who learn in UNRWA schools in Judea, Samaria, Gaza and Jerusalem… making the possibility of a peace process seem utterly absurd.
